This whitepaper discusses the critical importance of finding a better alternative to email as a file-sharing mechanism. It also provides information on the sponsor of this white paper – Attachmate – and its relevant solutions.

From email to Dropbox and FTP, the file transfer process in most organizations is fraught with risk and simply does not meet most organizations’ corporate governance requirements. The result is that the status quo of file transfer in most organizations can be considered UFT—or Unmanaged File Transfer.
What is needed to overcome the problem, therefore, is Managed File Transfer (MFT)—a solution that will enable complete control over content, its lifecycle, access rights to that information, the maintenance of an audit trail, and disposition of data according to corporate governance requirements.
This white paper, sponsored by Attachmate and based on a survey conducted by Osterman Research, describes current file transfer practices and the extent of risk that organizations face by not managing file transfer properly. It also explains the benefits of MFT, provides guidelines for evaluating file transfer vendors, and describes FileXpress®, Attachmate’s MFT solution.

With fewer resources and an increasing volume and size of file transfers each year, moving files in the extended enterprise has never seemed more complex. In this whitepaper, you’ll learn how to tackle the challenge of higher costs, increasing volume and size of file transfers, and fewer resources with one mature, managed file transfer process.

Patton Harris and Rust and Associates has 13 branches. Management and IT needed a way to help these offices work on projects together to optimize company resources. Using GlobalSCAPE WAFS gave PHR+A fast file access across branches using minimal system resources. No management is required as it operates in the background and real time byte level differencing not only reduces bandwidth usage and spikes but also the changes are sent as they happen – not when they are needed.

This whitepaper illustrates how, by using YouSendit and replacing FTP, Cisco has dramatically cut video administration costs by 90%. The Flip video file delivery process for Cisco Networking Academy's global operations is now much simpler, less costly and more efficient.

Is your file transfer system keeping up with growing trading-partner requirements? Can it accommodate multiple platforms, protocols, and security standards? Can it successfully deliver large files, to the right person, on time? If uncertainty is part of your daily routine, you need to see this video.

This whitepaper describes the formal and informal file-sharing methods business employees use to perform their daily functions and explains that, from sending small text documents to multi-gigabyte video files, the right managed file transfer (MFT) solution can allow such transfers to continue without risking the security of the corporate network. The paper explains that the right MFT solution can enable business growth, enhance operational efficiency, enable compliance, reduce costs, and increase ROI. Choosing the right MFT solution requires eight considerations described in the paper, and concludes by explaining why Globalscape solutions are the choice of our customers around the world.
